Indianapolis Adventure

This last week, we took a little excursion down to Indianapolis where Steve did 2 days of HACCP training. (Don't ask me what it is 'cause I'm not entirely sure...)
Because his work was already getting him a hotel room for 3 nights, I came down with him (he drove the rental care the entire time) and stayed at the hotel during the day and then we all went out and played after he was done for the day.

Here is Josh's first black eye. I failed to mention that this happened over a week ago when he tripped on the playground and hit his cheek against a stair. It was really sad to look at during the week!
In downtown Indianapolis, they have a canal coming off of the White River which is an absolutely beautiful walk. Josh really loved the ducks and being outside! I had tried to go for walks during the day, but there was really nowhere to go!


He loved looking at the water going underneath him on these little bridges.


Kelsey is working on her stomach muscles and you will often look in her seat and she is pulling her head forward as much as she can. I think she really loves seeing out of her carseat. Well, I thought it was adorable when I saw that she had fallen asleep like that.


I loved this apartment building just along the canal!

The Capitol building

We got back in the evenings in time to get Josh and Kelsey to bed. We each took one and had simultaneous diaper changes--Josh thought it was awesome! He is such a great big brother and he is so gentle with his sister!


She is getting so tall! Her legs already hang over the side of her car seat when she stretches out! She has also figured out that her toes are always in reach and that she loves to be held!

Josh and I had some cuddle time in the evenings. He was so great at laying down and sleeping when we asked him to and took good naps during the day. His favorite part about this trip, I would think, is that I let him stack the bed pillows on the floor and jump from the coffee table onto the pillows. He is SUCH a boy and I sure love him!

Oh my heavens! Kelsey is SUCH a Nufer baby!! Josh kinda looks like both of you, but that little woman got mostly Nufer genes, I think! They're both SO adorable, Nat!

You must be a better mother than I am, because Allison got her first black eye last week. Good job on holding off on Josh's until he was two!
